This work examines an increasing trend in migration -
transnationalism. Immigrants today are no longer rooted in one
location. By building transnational social networks, economic
alliances and political ideologies, they are able to cross the
geographic and cultural boundaries of both their countries of
origin and of settlement. Through ethnographic studies of immigrant
populations from St Vincent, Grenada, Haiti and the Philippines to
the United States, the authors aim to demonstrate that
transnationalism is something other than expanded nationalism. They
argue that by placing immigrants in a limbo between the settler and
visitor, transnationalism challenges the concepts of citizenship
and nationhood.
